Question 10: How many sides does the polygon AFDCB have?
Step1: Identify the vertices of the polygon AFDCB.
The vertices are A, F, D, C, B, and back to A. So we list the vertices: A, F, D, C, B.
Step2: Count the number of vertices (which equals the number of sides in a polygon).
There are 5 vertices (A, F, D, C, B), so the number of sides is 5.
To determine if a polygon is concave or convex, we check the interior angles. A convex polygon has all interior angles less than 180 degrees, and a concave polygon has at least one interior angle greater than 180 degrees. Looking at the polygon AFDCB, all interior angles appear to be less than 180 degrees (visually, the polygon "bulges" outwards, no indentations).
Step1: Identify the coordinates of A and F.
A is \((-4, 3)\) and F is \((-4, -3)\).
Step2: Use the distance formula for vertical lines (since x - coordinates are the same).
The distance formula for vertical lines is \(|y_2 - y_1|\). Here, \(y_1 = 3\), \(y_2 = -3\). So the length is \(| - 3 - 3| = | - 6| = 6\).
